=head1 Description

This Lua module provides API functions for post-processing SSL client hello message for NGINX downstream connections.

It must to be used in the contexts L<ssl_client_hello_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block>.

This Lua API is particularly useful for dynamically setting the SSL protocols according to the SNI.

It is also useful to do some custom operations according to the per-connection information in the client hello message.

For example, one can parse the custom client hello extension and do the corresponding handling in pure Lua.

To load the C<ngx.ssl.clienthello> module in Lua, just write


    local ssl_clt = require "ngx.ssl.clienthello"




=head1 Methods


=head2 get_client_hello_server_name

B<syntax:> I<host, err = ssl_clt.get_client_hello_server_name()>

B<context:> I<ssl_client_hello_by_luaE<42>>

Returns the TLS SNI (Server Name Indication) name set by the client.

Return C<nil> when then the extension does not exist.

In case of errors, it returns C<nil> and a string describing the error.

Note that the SNI name is gotten from the raw extensions of the client hello message associated with the current downstream SSL connection.

So this function can only be called in the context of L<ssl_client_hello_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block>.




=head2 get_supported_versions

B<syntax:> I<types, err = ssl_clt.get_supported_versions()>

B<context:> I<ssl_client_hello_by_luaE<42>>

Returns the table of ssl hello supported versions set by the client.

Return C<nil> when then the extension does not exist.

In case of errors, it returns C<nil> and a string describing the error.

Note that the types is gotten from the raw extensions of the client hello message associated with the current downstream SSL connection.

So this function can only be called in the context of L<ssl_client_hello_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block>.




=head2 get_client_hello_ext

B<syntax:> I<ext, err = ssl_clt.get_client_hello_ext(ext_type)>

B<context:> I<ssl_client_hello_by_luaE<42>>

Returns raw data of arbitrary SSL client hello extension including custom extensions.

Returns C<nil> if the specified extension type does not exist.

In case of errors, it returns C<nil> and a string describing the error.

Note that the ext is gotten from the raw extensions of the client hello message associated with the current downstream SSL connection.

So this function can only be called in the context of L<ssl_client_hello_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block>.

Example:

Gets server name from raw extension data. The C<0> in C<ssl_clt.get_client_hello_ext(0)> denotes C<TLSEXT_TYPE_server_name>, and the C<0> in C<byte(ext, 3) ~= 0> denotes C<TLSEXT_NAMETYPE_host_name>.


    # nginx.conf
    server {
        listen 443 ssl;
        server_name   test.com;
        ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block {
            local ssl_clt = require "ngx.ssl.clienthello"
            local byte = string.byte
            local ext = ssl_clt.get_client_hello_ext(0)
            if not ext then
                print("failed to get_client_hello_ext(0)")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            local total_len = string.len(ext)
            if total_len <= 2 then
                print("bad SSL Client Hello Extension")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            local len = byte(ext, 1) * 256 + byte(ext, 2)
            if len + 2 ~= total_len then
                print("bad SSL Client Hello Extension")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            if byte(ext, 3) ~= 0 then
                print("bad SSL Client Hello Extension")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            if total_len <= 5 then
                print("bad SSL Client Hello Extension")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            len = byte(ext, 4) * 256 + byte(ext, 5)
            if len + 5 > total_len then
                print("bad SSL Client Hello Extension")
                ngx.exit(ngx.ERROR)
            end
            local name = string.sub(ext, 6, 6 + len -1)
    
            print("read SNI name from Lua: ", name)
        }
        ssl_certificate test.crt;
        ssl_certificate_key test.key;
    }




=head2 set_protocols

B<syntax:> I<ok, err = ssl_clt.set_protocols(protocols)>

B<context:> I<ssl_client_hello_by_luaE<42>>

Sets the SSL protocols supported by the current downstream SSL connection.

Returns C<true> on success, or a C<nil> value and a string describing the error otherwise.

Considering it is meaningless to set ssl protocols after the protocol is determined,
so this function may only be called in the context of L<ssl_client_hello_by_lua*|https://github.com/openresty/lua-nginx-module/#ssl_client_hello_by_lua_block>.

Example: C<ssl_clt.set_protocols({"TLSv1.1", "TLSv1.2", "TLSv1.3"})>
